Design of a Flexure-Based Flywheel for the Storage of Angular Momentum and Kinetic Energy

Simon Nessim Henein, Hubert Pierre-Marie Benoît Schneegans, Florent Cosandier, Patrick Robert Flückiger

The flywheel is a widespread mechanical component used for the storage of kinetic energy and angular momentum. It typically consists of cylindrical inertia rotating about its axis on rolling bearings, which involves undesired friction, lubrication, and wea ...

On A Special Symmetry In The Dynamics Of Complex Systems In A Holographic-Type Perspective

Maria-Alexandra Paun

By operating with the Scale Relativity Theory in the dynamics of complex systems, we can achieve a description of these complex systems through a holographic-type perspective. Then, gauge invariances of a Riccati-type become functional in complex system dy ...

Morphology and Transport Characterization of Catalyst Layers for CO2 Reduction

Sophia Haussener, Francesca Lorenzutti

Gas diffusion electrodes (GDEs) help to reduce transport limitations in devices for electrochemical CO2 reduction. Homogenized modeling of such devices requires input of morphological characteristics and effective transport properties of the porous structu ...

How Lagrangian States Evolve Into Random Waves

Alejandro Rivera

In this paper, we consider a compact connected manifold (X, g) of negative curvature, and a family of semi-classical Lagrangian states f(h)(x) = a(x)e(i phi(x)/h) on X. For a wide family of phases phi, we show that f(h), when evolved by the semi-classical ...

Lattice-and-Plate Model: Mechanics Modeling of Physical Origami Robots

Jamie Paik, Hongying Zhang

Origami robots are characterized by their compact design, quasi-two-dimensional manufacturing process, and folding joint-based transmission kinematics. The physical requirements in terms of payload, range of motion, and embedding core robotic components ha ...

A mathematical theory for mass lumping and its generalization with applications to isogeometric analysis

Annalisa Buffa, Yannis Dirk Voet, Espen Sande

Explicit time integration schemes coupled with Galerkin discretizations of time-dependent partial differential equations require solving a linear system with the mass matrix at each time step. For applications in structural dynamics, the solution of the li ...

Covariant formulation of relativistic mechanics

Miguel Alexandre Ribeiro Correia

Accretion disks surrounding compact objects, and other environmental factors, deviate satellites from geodetic motion. Unfortunately, setting up the equations of motion for such relativistic trajectories is not as simple as in Newtonian mechanics. The prin ...

Planar Equilibria of an Elastic Rod Wrapped Around a Circular Capstan

Harmeet Singh

We present a study on planar equilibria of a terminally loaded elastic rod wrapped around a rigid circular capstan. Both frictionless and frictional contact between the rod and the capstan are considered. We identify three cases of frictionless contact - n ...

Structure-Preserving Reduced Basis Methods For Poisson Systems

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Cecilia Pagliantini

We develop structure-preserving reduced basis methods for a large class of nondissipative problems by resorting to their formulation as Hamiltonian dynamical systems. With this perspective, the phase space is naturally endowed with a Poisson manifold struc ...

Design and modelling of a tubular dielectric elastomer actuator with constrained radial displacement as a cardiac assist device

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Jonathan André Jean-Marie Chavanne, Armando Matthieu Walter

In this paper, we propose an improvement of a dielectric elastomer actuator (DEA) based augmented aorta. The actuator is a multi-layered tubular DEA subject to the internal pressure of the blood. When activated in synchronisation with the heart, the DEA su ...

Development of a semi-implicit contact methodology for finite volume stress solvers

Andreas Pautz, Alessandro Scolaro, Carlo Fiorina

The past decades have seen numerous efforts to apply the finite volume methodology to solid mechanics problems. However, only limited work has been done by the finite volume community toward the simulation of mechanical contact. In this article, we present ...

Design and Manufacturing of an Electrostatic MEMS Relay for High Power Applications

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Christian Köchli, Florian Louis Copt

This paper addresses the design and manufacturing of a crab-leg based MEMS relay for a high power application. Thanks to a contact resistance lower than 100 mΩ, the relay can hold a current in the order of magnitude of an Ampere without further thermal lim ...

Isogeometric Mortar Coupling for Electromagnetic Problems

Annalisa Buffa, Rafael Vazquez Hernandez

This paper discusses and analyzes two domain decomposition approaches for electromagnetic problems that allow the combination of domains discretized by either Nédélec-type polynomial finite elements or spline-based isogeometric analysis. The first approach ...

Implications of ANEC for SCFTs in four dimensions

Alessandro Vichi, Andrea Manenti

We explore consequences of the Averaged Null Energy Condition (ANEC) for scaling dimensions Delta of operators in four-dimensional N = 1 superconformal field theories. We show that in many cases the ANEC bounds are stronger than the corresponding unitarity ...

Extension of Winkler’s solution to non-isothermal conditions for capturing the behaviour of plane geostructures subjected to thermal and mechanical actions

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria, Qazim Llabjani, Jacopo Zannin

Before this study, no analytical models had been made available for describing the behaviour of plane geostructures subjected to thermal and mechanical actions. This knowledge gap notably represented a limitation for investigations about the behaviour of s ...
